Very nice!

I've always loved the 1st gens. IMO the 67 and 68 have the best looking lines (especially with the RS lights), even though the 69's are the most popular. I still have a triple black 67 RS/SS vert with 396/4sp that I've toyed with selling over the last year or two since I never drive it, but it's just so timeless and they only seem to go up in value so I hate to part with it and kick myself in the azz later.

Thank you and I used to prefer the 69 as well, but that has changed!

Congrats on the new ride! Very, very nice! It looks and sounds great! Looking forward to more posts on any upgrades and some driving/racing impressions.

Looks like she likes to get a little loose in the *** end huh? Nice!

Definitely a beautiful Camaro! There is a 67 at the shop with a very similar paint scheme. However, it does look pretty much like ever other Camaro when it comes to the wheels. It has those boring Torque Thrust II style wheels

Thanks for the kind words guys. I am loving this car so far and at about 1/3 the "investment" of my previous Camaro.

Thank you, but I disagree on the wheels. These are ZR1/Grand Sport replicas and there really arent many of these on 1st gen Camaros. And they dont resemble the Torque Thrusts other than being a 5 star wheel - which there are dozens of 5 stars available for any car.

But at the end of the day, I don't care because I did not pick them for the car.

Missed your post.. thanks! I hope to get to Infineon or Thunderhill with this car. It's so damn close to being track ready I really need to.

And getting sideways is pretty easy now since the tires are 7 years old! I'm trying to burn them up while I got them and then I'll be getting some R comps soon.

I think you mis-understood me. I was saying the car at the shop looks like all of the other Camaro's since it has those Torque Thrust II wheels. Yours definitely stands out as being different with the wheels. Sorry for the confusion.
